Wow I was under the impression it began in 2020 while Trump was still president. I could’ve sworn much was made about his policies about it and I thought I remembered that he actually contracted it while in office. Must’ve been dreaming. Thanks for the clarification.

That's in the last four years, yes.

OP clearly was using four years to describe Biden’s term to support the idea that he will go down as the greatest President in history. But even if you want to just look at the full covid period it doesn’t belong in the same sentence as the rest of those events. The past decade has been likely the most calm period in American history. But let’s pretend it was the darkest period of the past 400 years lol
